Hands-Free Step-On Waste Container

This 18-gallon rectangular container is built for indoor utility areas such as breakrooms and cleaning stations. The all-plastic construction resists punctures and stands up to daily commercial use. A quiet, heavy-duty pedal enables hands-free, sanitary disposal without touching the lid. The overlapping lid design helps contain odors inside the bin.

Upgrade From Open-Top Bins

Replacing an open-top receptacle with this step-on model removes the need to touch a lid during disposal, reducing cross-contamination risk. The jump is worth it when a facility requires quieter operation and tighter odor control in shared spaces. The pedal mechanism is designed for repeated commercial cycles without frequent maintenance. Facilities that already use pedal bins with cracked bodies or loose lids gain a more durable replacement.

Limits Of Pedal-Actuated Lids

The pedal mechanism requires clear floor space in front of the container for reliable actuation. Overfilling the 18-gallon volume can prevent the overlapping lid from seating fully, allowing odors to escape. The all-plastic body is not rated for high-heat environments or for disposal of hot materials. Users needing color-coded waste streams must purchase separate containers for each stream.

Questions about this item

How much floor space does the 18 Gal rectangular container need?

The rectangular footprint fits standard breakroom layouts; allow a few centimetres behind the lid hinge so the overlapping cover can swing fully open without hitting the wall.

What is the correct way to engage the heavy-duty pedal on the RCP 6145 RED?

Press the pedal straight down with your foot; pushing at an angle or kicking the pedal sideways can misalign the linkage and make the lid stick.

When should the all-plastic body of the 614500 model be replaced?

Replace the container if the plastic shows cracks, deep gouges or warping that prevent the tight-fitting lid from sealing, because punctures compromise odor containment and sanitation.
